In the Mandir I amazingly discoverd the marvellous paintings on the ceiling.It was spectacular to admire. I also discoverd the prayer beads which are a comparasion to my religion Islam. We use this to pray on and they do the exact same. My best thing that I discoverd was incence sticks they gave a strong and good smell to the Temple.

I discovered that religious Hindu men wear orange, and this represents that their old life is being burned and they have a new life devoted to worship. Hindus have more than one Holy book but if they were to go to the court they would swear on the Holy book Gita. They only have one God but they believe that he is in different forms. Their main God is Brahman. He is the creator of the world.

At the Hindu Temple I discovered that not all Hindus have to wear Tilak on there forehead in case of getting bullied. All Hindus worship one god which can come in many forms. Hindus don’t have any special books because all the books they have are equal but if they have to go to court they only take one book with them. One comparison to Islam is that when we enter the temple we have to take our shoes off and at the mosque you also take your shoes off.

Today we were discovering a Hindu temple. We found out about Brahman and how all the other Gods are him but in a different form. We were showed how men and women pray.

The trip was amazing because the man at the mandir rang the bell and a lady went down and showed us that what hindus do when they bow down. Men bow down and women bow down in a different way. I liked the trip.
